The intensity of the infiltrating eosinophil response was graded on an arbitrary scale of 0-4 (0 = no response; l=mild response, 2 = moderate response; 3 = strong response; 4 = sever response, as judged by the density of leukocytes infiltrating to the peribronchial and peribronchiolar tissues).
Map of Virginia with the Northern Neck region shown in red. The Northern Neck is the northernmost of three peninsulas (traditionally called necks in Virginia) on the western shore of the Chesapeake Bay in the Commonwealth of Virginia (the other two are the Middle Peninsula and the Virginia Peninsula).
The nape or nuque is the back of the neck. In technical anatomical/medical terminology, the nape is referred to by the word nucha, which also gives the adjective corresponding to nape in English, nuchal. An English and French word for the nape of the neck is nuque (pl. nuques). In many mammals, the nape is the site of the scruff, a loose, non-sensitive area of skin by which the mother can carry her young, holding the scruff between her teeth.
